By: Patricia Grabarek, Katina Sawyer

Through a straightforward, science-based approach, Leading for Wellness: How to Create a Team Culture Where Everyone Thrives explains the steps to become a Generator―the type of leader who people want to work for and organizations want to hire―by leading in a way that fosters trust and positive connections with employees. This book is based on two in-depth studies conducted by the authors, where they found that the keys to employee satisfaction, well-being, retention, and productivity were found in the behavior of leaders and the environment those leaders cultivated. Written by experienced industrial/organizational psychologists Patricia Grabarek and Katina Sawyer and packed with real-life stories to add context, this book explores topics including:

  • Addressing the mismatch in the definition of wellness between employees and employers
  • Focusing on the tone leaders set at work, as opposed to time they spend at work
  • Crafting work to support life, instead of the other way around, to support and respond to employees’ unique needs.

At a time when employee morale has never been lower, Leading for Wellness is an essential read for current and aspiring business leaders and managers seeking exclusive data-based insights on how to solve one of the most pressing problems in business today.
